Gas.
John Bruggem an, who is in the com
mission business at the Seven corners,
has been living with his son for some
time at the corner of Ninth and Oak
streets. Yesterday morning he failed
to get up as usual, and the girl was
sent to arouse him. She opened the
door when he did not respond to the
knock, and was almost 0verpoWered
with the fumes of gas coming through
the doorway. Mr.. Bruggeman was UNI
conscious and Drs. Miller, Stamm, Rich
ardson and Kelley were called. They
worked on him in every possible way,
electricity, ETC., but at late hour last
night he was still unconscious, and the
doctors, though still working with him.
despaired OF his life. He was an old
settler i'll st. Paul, aged sixty-fve and
quite we'll known. The supposition is
that he blew out the gas.

I exists, in each town and village, who

1t is not expedient TO offer bounties
for the destruction Nf sparrowS. In
fact, at the present time it is desirable,
and perhaps feasible, TO bring about a
! great reduction in their ranks by con-
certed action of the people, aided by
helpful legislation, without drawing
upon the public purse.
| RECOMMENDATIONS To THE PEOPLE.
The English sparrow is curse of
such vifulence that it ought to be sys-
tematically attacked and destroyed be-
fore it becomes necessary to deplete the
| public treasury for the purpose. as has
| been done i'll other countries. By con-
certed action, and by taking advantage
| of its gregariOuS habits, much good HAY
be accomplished with little or no eX-
penditure of money.
The sparrow is a cunning. wary bird.
| and SOON learns to avoid the means de-
vised by man for its destruction. Hence
much Sagacity must be displayed in the
warfare against it. In the winter time,
if food is placed in some convenient
spot at the same hour each day for a
week, the SparrowS will gather in dense
fiocks to feed, and large numbers may
be killed at one time by firing upon
them with small shot, Sometimes they
may be successfully Melted or trapped,
! but this requires considerable skill.
They may be poisoned by grain soaked
! in tincture of nuX vOmica or in FowleA's
